And it would be an all-out blast if buzz-kill Cage weren't in it, sauntering around striking poses and acting like, well, Nick Cage. The throwaway plot is beyond stupid, but that's what makes it so much fun. Angry is a painstakingly hilarious cheesy homage to '70s movies, complete with muscle cars and a satanic cult. And, like My Bloody Valentine, when you're in the diner, you feel like you're in the freaking diner.
It involves a bullet hole in a windshield, the reflection of the moon and Cage's glaring face all rolled up in a dream sequence - pure brilliance. There's one scene in particular that is true genius.
Everything flies at you: bullets, axes, car parts, body parts, flames, blood. very original and very funny.ĭirector Patrick Lussier ( My Bloody Valentine) has taken all the things I've been bitching about that was wrong with 3D and made them inventive, imaginative and visually stunning. Over the top action, titillating gore, violence, sex, nudity and one scene that incorporates intercourse and gunplay at the same time. If the filmmakers had chosen anyone else (with the exception of Justin Timberlake) this would have been a four-star movie. His take on the somber monotone serious dude does not jibe with the rest of the movie. Everyone (Billy Burke, William Fichtner and Amber Heard) is having a field day hamming it up and being super cartooney - everyone but Cage. Which brings me to Drive Angry, which is actually pretty good. But in Caine and Jackson's case, you can see the glint in their eyes, an acknowledgement that, "Yes, I am doing schlock." With Cage, the eyes have gone dead. They are bound to show up in a bad movie once in a while. There's always an actor who works too hard, like Michael Caine or Samuel L Jackson. Leaving Las Vegas gave him a well-deserved Academy Award, but after that, the only movies that come to mind nearing redemption are Spike Jonze and Charlie Kaufman's Adaptation and (just barely) Matchstick Men. There's always one in theaters, on cable, coming soon on DVD, being shot right now or in post-production. Sure he's had some money problems, but when you're one of the biggest box office stars, why make crap after crap after crap? Now, strictly appearing in "paycheck movies" there seems to always be a Nicolas Cage film happening somewhere. That's when I realized that maybe Cage wasn't cut out for "mood pieces." Now all he does are somber monotone performances in flicks that put me in a bad mood. Maybe it all started with Captain Corelli's Mandolin. these are films that come to mind when I think back to when Nicolas Cage was good. Caught in a deadly race against time, Milton has three days to avoid capture, avenge his daughter's death, and save her baby before she's mercilessly sacrificed by the cult."
